Strange as it sounds, I think both Roger and Gene absolutely nailed their Batman Returns review
Why is that strange? They weren't very stuffy film snobbish critics. Look up Siskel's positive review of Mortal Kombat. I enjoy that movie but no out of touch critic or snob would praise that movie the way he did. And even say he dislikes video games but enjoyed the movie enough that it made him consider giving Mortal Kombat games a try. They may not have cared much for Batman Returns but they hardly trashed it. It's not a film for everyone..
I love Batman Returns. It's my favorite Batman movie and I'm glad Gene Siskel gave it thumbs up.
I wonder if Siskel would've like Christopher Nolan's batman movies, and Matt Reeves' The Batman.
@@ThePoreproductions He'd probably give TB a thumbs down just for ripping off Seven.
Love these guys and I love the old commercials. Thanks for posting
Housesitter was one of my favorite movies. Goldie is fabulous as always
Batman Returns was the first movie I saw in a theater without a guardian. Saw it opening night (LOVED IT!) & when I came home from the theater, this episode of Siskel & Ebert was re-airing.
To love 'Returns' then have the animated series debut a few months later...exciting times! Thanks for posting this; everything came flooding back! 😅
Bruce Timm sketched Devito as The Penguin in person when the film was still in production.
Batman Returns was No match for the first movie from 1989, that movie was a classic! But Batman Returns was ruined by Tim Burton taking it too far. It wasn’t even a Batman movie, it was a Tim Burton movie. It was literally a repeat of Edward Scissorhands with the Penguin. It wasn’t about Batman
@@nsasupporter7557 In your opinion maybe. To me, Batman Returns did everything a sequel is suppose to do; upping the ante, the stakes felt higher, etc. I left that theater in '92 feeling exactly how I felt coming out of Chrisopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" in '08; like I had just seen one of the best Batman movies ever & looked forward to a third Tim Burton entry.
Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman & Danny DeVito's Penguin...c'mon, pitch perfect introductions for an edgier, 90s audience. (no shade to the actors from the 60s camp series) Tim Burton's entire aesthetic kickstarted the modern-day cinematic look of those characters & Gotham City. I'm not taking anything away from Batman '89 cemented "classic" status, I like that one as well, but personally, I prefer "Returns."
@@FireMadeFleshII dude, FYI most sequels are garbage anyway! I know it’s all based on opinion, but still. Most people know that sequels never live up to the original movie, generally speaking.
Burton made BR his own movie and took away from Batman. As I mentioned earlier, if you look closely to the plot and pay attention to the designs and costumes, it was literally a repeat of Edward Scissorhands with the Penguin. Hence why I said it was a Tim Burton movie, not a Batman movie. Burton has this annoying infatuation with the villains, he likes them better than Batman. This movie wasn’t even about Batman.
It was a depressing, disturbing horror movie. But I respect your opinion though
And speaking of the animated series RIP Kevin Conroy
14:08 "You only gave it a 3 star review" 😂 Love this exchange. These two guys were and still are unmatched as critics
They really look like Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn in HouseSitter 😂
32 years ago. I miss those times
I like Batman Returns; classic from my childhood. That said, Roger’s criticisms are spot on.
Thanks for this channel
I love Goldie in Housesitter! Michelle Pfeiffer is phenomenal as CatWoman
Those two films are some of my ultimate faves
The irony of giving these videos thumbs up or thumbs down is that is started on this very show
I love Batman Returns and thought Michelle did a great job as Catwoman and Danny Devito was great as the penguin! Also love the movie Housesitter!
Returns really looks good in full frame.
Wow I've never heard of some of these like cousin Bobby. Love batman returns
Do you think Siskel would've loved Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy? Especially The Dark Knight?
They really argued in this episode. BTW Siskel was right about Cold Heaven.
Geez, they are pretty harsh with each other in this episode
Batman Returns is a super masterpiece. Especially with all the “super hero” movies getting assembled lined out like they do now. The villains are the movie. Burton made the most Burton movie when he was for hire
Nonsense. The plot was as flimsy as an episode of SuperFriends. The penguin was neither funny nor scary. Pfeiffer's transformation made no sense. It was all hat, no cattle.
@@speedgriffon2504 I could careless about plot when it comes to the visuals on the level that this movie displays.
@@mainmanmainlining7575 So you're in it just for the visuals, nothing else? Well, to each his own. I'm the opposite. I can live with so-so effects with a really good story.
@@speedgriffon2504exactly, how can you ignore plot, acting and dialogue when you can see shiny special effects, which wasn't that good to begin with
No Internet Addresses Back In This Day!
Housesitter is hilarious!! Batman Returns was ahead of its time, and even looks tame compared to The Dark Knight.
This episode first aired in June of 1992.
Max Schreck exists in Batman Returns for Tim Burton to provide a grounding. Max’s presence signifies human evil to compare and contrast with the fantastical evil of The Penguin and Catwoman.
I agree with Roger about Housesitter.
The kid in the 101 Dalmatians commercial is a card.
I want to write that my name is Josh Tate and i'm writing that the year 2024 will be Batman's 85th anniversary year and the 35th anniversary of Tim Burton's 1989 Batman film.
“Batman Returns” (1992)

My reviews
Batman Returns (two thumbs up)
Cold Heaven (two thumbs up)
Housesitter (two thumbs down)
Cousin Bobby (two thumbs up, way up)
The Hairdresser's Husband (two thumbs up)
I think Ebert badly misunderstands Batman Returns. The power of the film is the relationship between Catwoman/Kyle and Batman/Bruce Wayne. Through each other, through their multi-tiered relationship with each other, they each come to realize that they don’t know who they are without the mask, without the persona. This, especially for Kyle, is, once realized, terrifying (the scene at the end when they unmask each other is stirring). They desperately want to connect with each other, but they only way they know how to is via their respective masked alter-egos, but those alter-egos are essentially opposed. The Catwoman/Batman relationship (at least in this movie) cannot be consummated in any way other than the death of one or both. This is a sorrowful realization. Batman Returns is not a great movie, per se, but it is, I think, the best Batman movie.
I think he was right about the film's construction. As is the case with many Burton films, there are individual scenes that work well but the story construction is practically non-existent. Still, I love the Batman-Catwoman relationship and the older I get, the more I appreciate it. I would take it over the relationships with Rachael and Selina in the Nolan films.
That’s the point though. Schreck is manipulating them. That’s why he’s the film’s real villain.
It’s not that hard, guys.
Who still has their Batman Returns cups?
I remember being so hyped up to see Batman Returns from all the marketing at the time. And then I thought it was terrible. Penguin biting someone's nose off is the point where I realized the movie was a lost cause. Most disappointing sequel I'd seen in a theater since Ghostbusters 2.
Batman Returns was disappointing to me at the time, but still much much better than Ghostbusters 2.
No wonder why Roger liked a movie about big bosomed woman obsession.
Devito = versatile
I remember seeing both Batman Returns and Housesitter in the movie theater with my friends back when we were seniors in high school. Neither film was any good which is probably why I only saw them once.
I didn’t care for Batman Returns either. The first movie from 1989 was a classic! But BR wasn’t even a Batman movie, it was a Tim Burton movie. It was literally a repeat of Edward Scissorhands with the Penguin. It wasn’t about Batman
Wow they were not too happy with each other here
Housesitter good
I am very sorry for mr. Siskel. When it comes to say his opinion about HouseSitter, he really feels scared in front of Ebert, who, as always, wants to be right at any cost. That film was colorful, funny, crazy, but not a comedy masterpiece ...
Roger is REALLY wrong here. Gene is right about Schreck. This is a great film.
I like Batman except i hate the Penguin. I couldn't stand the grossness
All that movie was was a repeat of Edward Scissorhands with the Penguin. It wasn’t even a Batman movie, it was a Tim Burton movie
I remember when Batman Returns came out that there was a lot of tie in merchandise at Burger King for the kiddies. Then parents got angry when they found out that the film was NOT for kids.
😝
Creo que para reír con Steve Martin tienes que ser estadounidense. Su humor es 100% para estadounidenses.
Batman Returns was soooooo bad.
It wasn’t even a Batman movie, it was a Tim Burton movie. It was literally a repeat of Edward Scissorhands with the Penguin
@@nsasupporter7557 True
@@patrickc3419 Batman 1989 was the best Batman movie ever. It’s a classic
@@nsasupporter7557 Very good movie. That, the original three X Men’s, & the first two Captain America’s are probably my top ones as far as the Super hero genre movies go.
@@patrickc3419 what do you mean the first 2 Captain America’s? You mean the ones with Chris Evans? Or the 1990 movie?
Batman Returns is really good. Ebert is wrong as usual.
Yeah, he knows nothing of movies 🙄
